iPad~ mini 2 has a stunning 7.9-inch Retina display with over 3.1 million pixels. It also comes with the A7 chip with 64-bit architecture, ultrafast wireless, iSight and FaceTime HD cameras, powerful apps, and up to 10 hours of battery life.1 Yet it still fits easily in one hand.

Apple Ipad - Apple Quality
on January 8, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
Good unit. I like the size. I have a traditional Ipad & it is bulky, at least when travelling. This one is big enough to read emails, browse the web & watch movies. My phone is (apple iphone 5) is cumbersome with these tasks. While the old ipad is a good size at home, this one is very compact & fits easily into a small carry-on bag or briefcase and takes up no space. It works well, nice speed & great screen quality make it a very nice accessory for business & fun.

Comfortable / Good Sound

Verified Purchase:Yes
I haven't purchased headphones in many years! They have come a long way for sure. You get great sound, without surrounding noise, AND comfort - at least compared to my decades old headphones. Expensive though. I only wonder if Bose or Sony may have comparable quality phones without quite as high of a price. I bought these due to a recommendation by a friend.

Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G Standard Lens: Whether you're a beginner or professional, you'll love this compact, lightweight lens from Nikon. The normal angle of view captures approximately what the human eye sees, making it a great all-around lens. Plus, the f/1.8 maximum aperture is ideal for creating softly blurred backgrounds and shooting in low light.

Good Lens
on April 28, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
This lens does provide more options in low light conditions. I am comparing this to my kit lens (18-140mm) that came with my D5300.
While I haven't used this lens extensively yet, the images I have captured so far are crisp. I've made use of the wide aperture to blur the background as well. (I have used it for portraits).
As indicated above, I have done some tests in low light & the images are clean there too, but obviously not as crisp as normal lighting or especially sunlight. Of course the camera plays a factor there too with a little noise. I get that too on the kit zoom lens. This lens appears to be better than the zoom.
Not much else. It works well with my D5300 as far as quick auto-focus. It's small, so it easy fits into my already crowded camera bag.

You toss up the ball and smack it square in the middle with the heel of your palm, forcing it gracefully toward the net. Just as it's about to cross over, you use a Mini Mushroom. The ball shrinks before your very eyes and you watch in glee as the opposing team struggles to maintain composure and stop the ball from landing on their side. You know it's too late though. With a Mario-exclusive fireball move still up your sleeve, there's no way the other team will be able to make up the point difference.Play your favorite sports games in Mario Sports Mix. Featuring volleyball, basketball, ice hockey and dodgeball, this fun-filled game features basic game rules with a few magical twists like only Mario can bring you. Rack up the bonus points by collecting coins before you score, use special items to interfere with your opponent's moves and deal out some damage with character-specific signature moves that are all but impossible to counter. Just remember you're not always the one in charge of mixing things up. Special locations offer their own bag of tricks, such as Bowser Jr. Blvd., where bonus circles frequently appear on the basketball court to offer positive and negative bonuses, resulting in huge point swings. Play with two other friends cooperatively or go two-on-two in a competitive match to determine who has what it takes to survive the Mario madness.

This is a great game for Die-Hard Mario fans. My son received this as a gift from us. It was pre-owned, but worked out fine. This game is hard to find, especially new! Sorry, I don't have details about the game itself, but it is well-liked by by 11-year old son.

Fun Movie

Verified Purchase:Yes
We saw this in the theater and loved it. This blu-ray and DVD copy works well for us. We have one blu-ray player, where we keep that disk. The DVD can be used on any of our other devices, so that gives us the portability we like - especially on a trip. We do normally setup the digital copy, but have not yet on this movie, but I have never had issues doing that before, so should be okay. File copy makes it even more convenient for streaming.
So the combo back is a winner for us. The movie is great for all ages too. It keeps the familiar theme from the old animated classic, but the 3d-like CG animation is great.

Up to Apple Standards

I like this tablet. It has a quality feel to it. The screen is extremely responsive and the batter life is great. I'm not always having to leave it on the charger. The screen is crisp and bright.
I'm used to the old standard sized tablet (Full size iPad), but this one is easy to get used to. It is noticeably more compact to carry around. I like that convenience and am willing to give up the larger screen for sure.

These disks work fine for me. I have had no problems with retrieving data that I have burned on them. I do take great care of my burned disks. The ones I burn are more fragile than pre-recorded movies or CDs regardless of the brand. I use these for backups of files (Pictures/Movies/Etc).

What's great about it: DVDs burn accurately. Have not had problems with bad disks.

I have always like playing NCAA football. I've played it extensively on the PS2. Now, with our new Xbox, I felt it was a necessity.
Good game overall, a bit more complex than the older games, but I'm sure comparable to all the current Football games out there.
I didn't care about getting the current rosters, so I saved a bundle getting the used game. We just got this for Christmas, so I haven't explored it completely yet. In-game performance is good though.

iPad Air is 20 percent thinner1 and weighs just one pound, so it feels unbelievably light in your hand. It comes with a 9.7-inch Retina display, the A7 chip with M7 motion coprocessor, ultrafast wireless, powerful apps, and up to 10 hours of battery life.2 And over 475,000 apps in the App Store are just a tap away.3

The ipad is just a nice convenient internet / gaming tablet. It feels extremely sturdy, although I stongly recommend a good case. It's great for watching movies & web browsing. It's responsive and easy to use - especially if you already have an apple product. If not, you will only have a slight learning curve.

As a child you played with wooden or plastic blocks to create what you saw in the world around you ~ a house, a car, a bridge, a cement mixer. In high school, you built lamps, signs and more in shop class. You've also constructed full worlds, filled with realistic people simulating real life. Now, you can go back to your child-like roots and build with blocks again ~ but this time they're virtual blocks, and you can use them to create vibrant, 3D worlds that are filled with adventure and the magic of imagination.Get ready to build whatever pops into your mind when you jump into the 3D, eight-bit worlds of Minecraft. The Tutorial mode makes it simple to master essential skills and learn the basics. So grab your Xbox 360 controller, and start constructing any world that you can think of with the easy-to-use building blocks and the new crafting interface that lets you build the Minecraft world of your imagination in completely new ways. Explore other worlds to go on thrilling adventures, and gain inspiration for your own creations. Battle dangerous monsters that come out at night ~ including the Ender Dragon for an epic end-game battle ~ and be sure to make a shelter to protect yourself when the sun goes down. Explore and build with friends in split-screen mode via Xbox LIVE with up to eight players, so you can share the adventure. Are you ready to construct the world of your dreams in nostalgic, eight-bit fashion?

Great game for 10-year old

My 10-year old plays with this extensively. He has always loved Minecraft on his ipad. You can create & explore worlds. The graphics are simple - by design. It appears to be simply the same game that you can get for the PC, but it's nice to just plug-n-play in the xbox too. My son says there are no negatives to the game.
